The third master since that day his wife told him about the establishment of the college, he is full of enthusiasm for writing the words of this plaque, every day is to take the time to write, not Minshan has to go out to see the scenery, he can't wait to carry his son on his back to practice, Su said let others hold to go around, he is not at ease, sometimes Su in the house to push the wooden cart around, so that the third master will practice more.

For the enthusiasm of the third master, Su Shi is happy to see, watching him practice calligraphy is better than watching him idle before.

During the period, Su Shi and the third master went to see the wood carving shop, and saw that the inside was almost cleaned up, quite a little simple texture, Mr. Cai still has two strokes, with artistic cells, the front is the storefront, the back of the small courtyard as a studio and warehouse, although the store is only one floor, not half the size of the ancient Yunxuan, but there is a kind of courtyard deep, deep landscape feeling, just near the literati love to the place, close to the college, surrounded by the study and pen and ink shop, it seems that the wood carving shop has a cultural atmosphere.

Su Shi is very satisfied with this, and it is really a professional thing to be done by a professional person, so as not to blindly command without knowing anything, and in the end he may make a nondescript thing.

Su Shi and the third master looked at the size of the door plaque outside, asked the size of the door plaque again, and went back to ask the third master to write the name of the store according to this size.

The store also used a screen partition to make a reception room, so that guests can rest and appreciate the carvings, because of the space saving, there is no extra place to make a reception room, such a design is very modern antique shop style, so don't underestimate the ancients, that mind may be higher than modern people.

Su Shi and the third master sat in the reception room, and first told Mr. Cai that the name of the store was Mindiao, and he had no opinion on this Mr. Cai, and it was not his own store, and the name of the store had nothing to do with him. Su Shi also said that this shop will pay rent of 500 taels per month for the third room according to the surrounding market, and this Mr. Cai also listened, and thought that this had nothing to do with himself, and he didn't know what the owner said to himself.

The next thing is that Su Shi and Mr. Cai's fifth master will talk about the issue of cooperation in the future, Su Shi does not want others to invest in silver two shares, it is better to give dry shares, so that he has all the right to speak. Therefore, the Su family drafted a contract in advance, and then asked the third master to revise and polish it, and was ready to sign it with Mr. Cai, even the fifth master.

Wood carving shop, Su Shi gave Mr. Cai two shares, to the fifth master one percent, because he belongs to the apprenticeship period, not his own son, one percent does not give, and then each carving transaction of silver two to the commission of two percent, at present, if it is unreasonable or the future income situation, it can also be adjusted,

The fifth master didn't understand anything, and he didn't have any opinions, Master Cai was stunned, he thought that his wife would only give the monthly salary and the commission of his carvings, and give two percent of the dry shares, he really didn't expect that the carvings sold in the Gu Yuexuan store were for the sake of the old monk, and the second was because he gave Gu Yunxuan some carvings for free to appreciate and evaluate, so when he was short of silver, the highest he gave was only forty percent, and the Hou Mansion not only gave him a house for his family to live in, but also gave him dry shares in vain, so that Mr. Cai was speechless for a while, and his heart was churning。

Su Shi saw the gratitude in Mr. Cai's eyes, and said with a smile: "At the beginning, maybe I won't be able to earn any silver taels per month, then Mr. Cai don't be disappointed, I believe in Mr. Cai's ability, so I can rest assured that my fifth master will be handed over to you, and the commission of this carving is also the current way, because I am also a layman, I don't understand, if the benefits are good in the future, you can improve it."

Mr. Cai nodded and said: "The old lady is grateful for Cai's support, Cai is grateful, the old lady can rest assured, Cai will definitely take the fifth master with all his heart."

Su Shi smiled: "If Mr. Cai doesn't dislike it, just accept my fifth master as a disciple, my master and I are 10,000 assured of Mr. Cai, and it is also his blessing to have Mr. Cai teach him."

Mr. Cai smiled and said: "Mrs. Meng can afford it, Cai will accept this disciple, Cai also sees that the fifth master does not only have a lot of strength in this regard, especially the eyesight and ideas are quite spiritual, stronger than the dog, the dog is at most a carpenter, do carvings, is not talented in that area, a lot of work in this shop is done by my two unsuccessful sons"

Su Shi heard him say this, just today is ready to ask Mr. Cai to help find someone, so Su Shi said his request to Mr. Cai, Mr. Cai said: "As long as it is not conceived or anything, dogs can still do it, Cai's hometown is famous for woodwork, and every household will do this carpenter work, which is what my daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law do."

Su Shixi said: "That's just right, one day I drew a drawing for Mr. Cai, just do it according to the size and size on the drawing, it's not difficult, it is to be placed outdoors, how can it be protected from wind and rain, it can be used for a few more years, but the cost is not too high, it is for children to have fun, not a delicate object."

Mr. Cai said: "This is easy, wait until you see the drawings of your wife, and then quote a price to your wife."

Su said: "I don't think it's as good as this, it is estimated that there will be things to be done in the future, I will hand them over to your family, you don't report the price of materials, you count everything in the material salary, it is equivalent to what to do to give me a price, your family also has to live, unlike before I made a small car bed for my family, and it just happened to give your son a living, and did not delay others, I don't care where you want to do things, as long as I make the objects I want to do in my spare time."

Mr. Cai thought about it, and nodded his head without prevarication, the third master was not interested in listening to what his wife and Mr. Cai said, but he didn't want to leave his wife here to talk to a foreign man, so he had to sit depressed and couldn't interject, he didn't understand what they said.

Su Shi finally said: "In this store, I will send a shopkeeper and a guy to come over to greet guests, Mr. Cai and the fifth master just take care of the carvings, and then publish the accounts every month, Mr. Cai rest assured, I have always liked to do things simply and clearly, so that it can last for a long time."

Cousin Wang Wanfu, who planned to be sent here as a shopkeeper, had already bought wood carvings under the leadership of Cousin Song and went to Gu Yunxuan several times, and Wang Wanfu also went to all the wood carving shops in Beijing.

Mr. Cai listened to it, he is not the entertainment person, and it is just right for the owner to send someone to take care of it, as for those who are not at ease, if he is not at ease, he will not stay in the Hou Mansion.

Mr. Cai hurriedly said a few polite words, and Su Shi saw that everything that should be said was said, so he left the contract and let Master Cai take a closer look, and just take a copy of each after signing it.

After going out, Su said to the third master: "Get one, the next thing is Zhuangzi, but when I go back, I have to sign a contract with the master, and we have to settle accounts as husband and wife."

The third old man glared and asked, "What contract did Mrs. sign with me? Isn't mine Mrs.'s?"

Su said with a smile: "My nurse said that it is better for my father to have a mother than myself, that is, I have a father, and you have to reach out and ask him where he wants."

The third old man secretly hated what kind of nurse this was, why didn't he teach his wife a good word? Last time, it was better to teach his wife to rely on her son than to rely on herself, and this will be another husband and wife to settle accounts, if the nurse is still alive, really ask her what her intentions are.

The third old man giggled when he saw that his wife finished speaking, and he was really speechless.
